Sinopsis
Excerpt from Stravinsky: An Autobiography
The aim of this volume is to set down a few recol lections connected with various periods of my life. It is equally intended for those interested in my music and in myself. Rather, therefore, than a biography it will be a simple account of important events side by side with facts of minor consequence: both, how ever, have a certain significance for me,*and I wish to relate them according to the dictates of my mem ory.

The author's evocative prose transports readers to the vibrant world of late 19th and early 20th-century Russia, immersing them in the rich tapestry of the country's cultural and artistic scene. From childhood memories of peasant songs and orchestral masterpieces to adolescent struggles with academic pressures and the pursuit of a musical career, the author's personal anecdotes provide a unique window into the formative experiences that shaped his artistic vision. The narrative delves into the composer's encounters with influential figures in the music world, including his revered teacher, Rimsky-Korsakov, and the visionary impresario, Diaghilev. These interactions shed light on the composer's evolving musical sensibilities and his navigation of the complex dynamics within the Russian and European musical landscape. The book explores themes of artistic exploration, creative ambition, and the challenges of forging one's path in a competitive and tradition-bound field. It delves into the tensions between academic dogma and the emergence of new artistic movements, offering insights into the composer's own evolving perspectives and his embrace of innovation.
